Healthy aging and dementia: findings from the Nun Study. The importance of preventative measures to protect against brain injury. The potential of Folate and other micronutrients in preserving brain reserve. It itself needs to be well rested in order to go through its own repair processes." We’ll discuss: 1. "Your brain needs to be in a body that is healthy, it needs to be in a body that's well rested. The Nun study revealed a possible correlation between Folate levels and the severity of Alzheimer's dementia, and that higher levels of Folate may help support brain reserve, and delay or prevent symptom onset. It can be damaged by concussions, alcohol, smoking, and malnutrition, and can be supported by preventative measures, such as wearing a helmet, seatbelt, and fall prevention, as well as getting regular exercise, eating a healthy diet, and getting adequate sleep. Brain Reserve refers to the volume and size of our brains, including the mass and the sum total of all the cells in the brain and is largely thought to be determined by genetics. Pamela Hutchison discusses Brain Reserve, exploring the remarkable irony of positive deviants with asymptomatic Alzheimer's dementia and the powerful effects of Folate, to reveal the importance of nourishing the brain. ![]() In this episode of The Well Nurtured Brain, Dr. Pam's Instagram: The Well Nurtured Brain's Instagram: Facebook: Website: Email: Loved this episode?

APOε2 and education in cognitively normal older subjects with high levels of AD pathology at autopsy: findings from the Nun Study. Nun Study Insights: How the study showed that higher education is correlated to increased cognitive reserve The intriguing correlation of one specific measurement, made from the Nun’s teenage personal biographies and their later cognitive health. Diversity of Use: The more diversity of use, the more pathways our brain has to perform a task. We’ll discuss: Use it or Lose it: The brain repairs and maintains the pathways, neurons, and systems that we use. Hutchison discusses how cognitive reserve is built and maintained, and shares insights from the Nun Study, a cohort of almost 700 Catholic nuns, to demonstrate how cognitive reserve can help people maintain their brain health as they age. ![]() Pamela Hutchison ND explores the concept of cognitive reserve - the brain's thinking capacity, which is based on the number and health of connections between the neurons in the brain. ![]()
